But as Dan Rather prepares to leave the top anchor chair at CBS News in March, he is more likely to be remembered for a series of controversial memos whose validity he was never able to prove.

But as Dan Rather prepares to leave the top anchor chair at CBS News in March, he is more likely to be remembered for an attempt at "gotcha journalism" coordinated with the DNC to tank President Bush's re-election effort. The memos were quickly exposed as frauds but Dan insisted that we still consider the questions raised by the content of the memos EVEN IF they were proven to be fakes. He also attacked his critics for a week rather than dropping the issue and moving the memos to the "back burner" while their authenticity was examined more closely.
